While some franchises are grappling with on-air lawsuits, including Real housewives from New Jersey ‘s Therese and Joe giudicethe case of fraud and The Real Housewives of New York City‘s Sonja morganfiling for bankruptcy – other shows are trying to keep courtroom proceedings off the air.
Real housewives from Beverly Hills Star Dorit Kemsley, for example, was accused of owing money to her former business partner in 2018. While the Beverly Beach designer was confronted with the situation during the casting trip to the Bahamas, the incident was not aired during season 9 of RHOBH. The moment of tension, however, was captured by onlookers and shared on social media.
Dorit called the viral video “embarrassing” to What’s Going On Live With Andy Cohen in April 2019.
“Obviously it has happened, it’s all over the internet,” she said at the time. “I was grateful that the other ladies didn’t talk about it this season. … I am very comfortable with our position, but unfortunately my hands are tied. You can’t discuss legal issues when they’re unfolding and I respect that. “

Whether it’s covered on the show or not, there’s no denying that several real housewives have found themselves in court over the years:
